What's wrong with idiom?
Just can't stand the way it sounds, starts with an idi like your going into something then ends with an um. It feels like someone stopped making the name partway through.

The Annoying Orange.

I'm always tempted to write it out. The word is in everybody's mind while we read the text. It gets so powerful if people decide to talk around it. But if the context is not hurtful, it's just a word. Nothing happens. It becomes an insult if the mind of the one who says it or the one who reads it decides to make it one.
Plus the assholes who use it as a slur will say it anyway. We're not achieving anything by erasing it from our bubble.
Well, that's what I think about it. -

I like woody sort of words. Bound, prudy, recidivist. Erogenous zone, loose woman... concubine! Errrogenous zooooone!
Funny thing, dear. All the naughty words sound woody.
E: It appears I have misread the question. But I'll leave my Monty Python reference here.

Feminism
Between the toxic terfs and the toxic trads i think the word has been sullied, maybe beyond recovery.
I beleive in equality and free expression for all, but I don't feel like that's a goal that aligns with most modern forms of Feminism.
It is a word that's supposed to mean eqality, but these days when someone identifies as a feminist my mind assumes they're gonna be a reactionary bigot.

When people call sex "breeding".
It sounds like some puritanical shit where they believe that sex is only for procreation.
I only use "breeding" to refer disparagingly to the actions of those who believe that having kids is mandatory or, at least, unavoidable.

Trump.
I will never speak it again.

Relevant greentext:
The sandwich bit is nonsense, given that it owes his name to the Earl of Sandwich AFAIK.

That's how I thought it was used.

The Earl of Sandwich invents the sophisticated breaddystack only for the plebs to just refer to it by its inventor. Imagine inventing the morphodynamic semioscillating inverter only for the uneducated commons to call it a "Jimothy" or something.

I don't agree. I think it's still just as powerful a word even though people purposely try to weaken it

"y'all" its so wierd how people normalized such a cringe word, and it was originally laughed at because people who often say it dont seem so intelligent.
also the words "academic incest" which is really wierd an cringe, it suppose to describe getting more than 1 degree, usually a grad and a UNDERGRAD In the same university.
As an intellectual from The South, I’m taking it back. Y’all is a missing part of speech in the English language and follows known patterns. I use it with pride.
However, saying that out loud I realize I have opened myself up to w’all and will have to give that a try.

I won't, because I can't.

What could I call myself to show I am a feminist, but not that type of feminist.?
